In continuation with our previous study using fluorescein-isothiocyanate (FITC)–Lys-Arg-Phe-
Lys (KRFK) peptide, the aim of this work was to study the interaction of the unlabelled KRFK …

Calcium alginate gel microspheres coated with a human serum albumin (HSA)-alginate
membrane were prepared adapting a transacylation method previously applied to large …

Oral administration of peptide and protein drugs requires their protection from the acidic and
enzymatic degradation in the gastro-intestinal environment and their targeting to the …

Alginate has potential as a matrix for controlled delivery of protein-based drugs that require
site-specific long-term delivery. In the current work albumin, lysozyme and chymotrypsin …

Microsphere hydrogels made with emulsan–alginate were used as carrier for the
microencapsulation of blue dextran in order to study the effect of emulsan on the alginate …

This work examines physico-chemical properties influencing protein adsorption to anionic
PLG microparticles and demonstrates the ability to bind and release vaccine antigens over a …

The goal of this study was to evaluate the technological feasibility of delivering antigen using
alginate microspheres. The microspheres were prepared by an emulsification technique and …

Chitosan-coated alginate microspheres containing a lipophilic marker dissolved in an edible
oil, were prepared by emulsification/internal gelation and the potential use as an oral …

Alginate gel beads are used in many applications as matrices for release or immobilisation.
The problems of enzyme stability and low entrapment efficiency by this microencapsulation …

This study describes the preparation and characterization of a model protein (bovine serum
albumin; BSA)-loaded alginate microspheres. BSA was encapsulated within alginate …
